Installation issues:

There are two known issues that we can't fix, as it doesn't depend on Mail Merge for Gmail:

1- Add-on doesn't seem to be installed successfully / I never get the "addon-installed successfully" popup:

This issue can occur when you sign in Google accounts, and you are not using the principal account for installation. An easy workaround is to open a private window, sign in to the Google account you want, then proceed to the installation.
